So I was driving home from work today and I try to merge in the right hand lane then all of a sudden a Saturn Ion Coupe with a loud aftermarket exhaust jumps up to block me from getting in, finally I slow down and get behind since there was too many cars in front. Well, the right lane shifted off to a right turn only at a red light and I stop at it because the light was red. As I stop, I look over and I see this kid staring at me and reeving his engine and motioning that he wants to go. Naturally, I can't go anywhere since I'm turning so I shake my head, roll my eyes and make my turn, so sad, lol.

And I swear to God the kid looked like the one on the right here;

Yeah, my neighbor drives one but he's in his 30s and not into racing or anything so it's cool but damn this was annoying... I just noticed they have like 145 hp, nice.

LMAO! a blue one with big exhaust tried to race me before but there was traffic so it was pointless.

Other than Altima, I agree GTI, if it were old style WRX I'd take it for the Turbo, but damn, the new body style eats a flaming bag of aids.
